The military discussion in the shogunate lasted until late at night, and Zhuang Wudi's strategy of 'fighting again and fighting while walking' was approved by the majority of generals, only a few people such as Chengtong and Pan Wuming still insisted on crossing the river eastward, because Zhao Zheng was in the army.

Only by killing or capturing Zhao Zheng can the Chu army truly change the Qin State and gain time for the Chu State to digest the old Ying and Nanyang. If Zhao Zheng is not killed, even if Xianyang City is razed to the ground, the Qin State can still organize a large army to attack the Chu State again.

Therefore, where Zhao Zheng is, where the Chu army should attack, this is the most important thing, and it cannot simply pursue military victory. For a large country like Qin, which occupies three-quarters of the world, it is difficult for a military victory or defeat to affect its national policy. Only by killing Zhao Zheng, causing internal strife in the Qin State, or supporting the pro-Chu king and Xiangbang, can the Chu State be at peace.

However, all the generals believed that military defeat could also affect Qin's national policy, and the last three-year war was only because of military defeat (and of course, geographical inconvenience) that Qin turned to Zhao. If the Chu army can continue to make the Qin State suffer heavy defeats, so that the Qin State has no talents and elite soldiers, then even if the Qin State wants to attack Chu, it will not have the strength to attack Chu.

All power is based on victory, and the guarantee of victory depends on force, and the army and soldiers are force itself. Rather than risk heavy casualties to kill Zhao Zheng, it is better to wipe out the Qin army with much smaller casualties. When the Qin army was weakened to a certain extent, and when all the divisions of the Chu army were equipped with a battalion of ten-jin or fifteen-pound guns, all problems were solved.

Artillery, all the generals were worshiped as gods, so that the previous year, the counties of the country began to worship the god of thunder. Before the battle of Chengpu, Ziyu dreamed that the river god asked for his Qiongben jade, but Ziyu refused and was defeated. This is all because 'sacrifices do not go beyond the hope', and the shrines that are not in the territory of the country will not be sacrificed.

The thunder god lives in Lei Ze, and Lei Ze is not in the Chu realm, and he has never sacrificed. But everyone thought that the cannon was the incarnation of the god of thunder, and it borrowed the power of the god of thunder, so all counties and towns were sacrificed. Not only sacrificed, but also extremely grand, jade silk sacrifice, equivalent to the order.

If each Chu army division had a battalion of artillery, the generals would not be able to imagine any other army that could defeat them. At present, the young gunners who are only thirteen years old are still growing up and are restricting the Chu army's armament artillery, but fortunately, they will be successful next year. Thirty divisions, at least 480 artillery pieces, if these artillery pieces were unfolded, there was no army in the world that could not be defeated.

The military council only determined the strategic direction, and the specific details were resolved by the strategists, astronomy, geography, and legal calculations in the shogunate. The generals can rest, but these people cannot rest. Xiong Jing believed early on that verbal transmission of marching and battle orders was very inaccurate and not detailed. The carving boat for the sword is a bit illusory, but there are historical records of the surface water and Yong, but there are not as many soldiers as drowned as many, so the diagram and digitization are the most basic requirements for the transmission of orders in the army.

In the middle of the night and before dawn, the marching and operational plans readjusted according to the latest operational requirements were transmitted to the shogunate of each division, and there were clear requirements for the formation and sequence of the march, the marching route, the speed, the itinerary, the long path, the departure point of each division, the adjustment point, the assembly point, the camping point, and the time limit for completing the journey. During the battle, the formation, sequence, principle, formation, distance, width, thickness, ......and time limit of each division also had clear requirements, but unfortunately only a very small number of generals could understand these orders - if the Chu army wanted to truly complete this magnificent turn, it must wait for the next generation.

Before dawn, the smell of corn and rice permeated the barracks, and while the soldiers were eating, the generals of each division were giving down the latest marching plan. After breakfast, at the forefront were the two divisions of Xi and Tang, which were the front army; It was followed by the four divisions of the Ying Division, which was the Left Army; Then there is the Chinese army composed of divisions and brigades such as Qisi, Xiyang, Yiyang, Xincai, etc., some of these divisions have only one brigade, some are one division, a total of four and a half divisions, and finally two divisions of the Hubei Division, which are the right army.

At the middle of the day, the front army had reached the mouth of the Rim River Valley twenty miles, and from here, the width of the Rim River Valley Road became more than 300 meters, which was only a few dozen meters before. After arriving, Cheng Tong, who led the front army, ordered the two divisions of Xi and Tang to stop, in order to wait for the two divisions of the Ying division behind, and the four divisions would go straight out of the Gongchuan from the four horizontal mountain streams that had been marked on the left side of the mountain stream, Jiayi (now Guojialing), Jiaer (now Hekou Village), Jiasan (now Guanshang Village), and Jiasi (now Jiuquangou), and go straight to Bailuyuan more than ten miles away from the uneven mountain range.

Because of the staggered fall of the mountain stream, the difference between the front and the last one is as much as 14 miles. In terms of time, it must be closely coordinated, so as to ensure that the four divisions appear simultaneously at the southernmost point of Bailuyuan - although the Qin army did not build embankments in Gongchuan, all the rivers in the Qinling Mountains were guarded by soldiers, and there were 100,000 people east of Bashui according to Hou Spy's intelligence. The east bank of Bashui near Lantian is wide, and the further north it goes, the narrower it becomes, and many of the Qin soldiers' military tents are set up on the Bailu Plateau.

The four divisions had to quickly defeat the 100,000 Qin troops on the Bailu Plateau and outside Lantian City, while the other eight and a half divisions had to follow up quickly, and the sappers led by Gong Zhiji had to blast open the mountain roads before midnight in order to transport the accompanying artillery, the only vehicles, and the baggage weapons out of the mouth of the Gongchuan River and to the Bailu Plateau.

From the May offensive to the present, the Chu army has spent most of its time on the march for more than a month. From Huaishui to Dajiang, then from Dajiang to Hanshui, and from Hanshui to Danshui, and now finally cross the Qinling Mountains to attack Xianyang. The generals couldn't help but be excited, and the soldiers couldn't suppress their excitement, even if they gave the order to sleep, the generals hidden in the depths of the forest were not tired.

Xiong Jing naturally did not get tired, he had to pay close attention to the queue of the Chu army - the long march path of more than 40 miles of the twelfth and a half divisions should be compressed in the mountain stream, when the last Hu division rushed to the Jiasi Hengjian, the time was to move to the Great Migration, and the Great Migration was four o'clock according to the clock of later generations, fortunately, this is the month of spinning (June of the Chu calendar), the ninth day of the seventh day, after the Great Migration, it was dark when the car was suspended. The Chu army had three hours, that is, four and a half hours to go out of Sichuan and fight. However, it will take four hours to wait for the great move.

In the Rim River, the Chu army was waiting, and on the Blue Valley Road, Ruo Ao who was leaving the pass in the west was leading his division to wade through the water. Relying on the improvised hypothetical Feixun, the military order required him to launch a diversionary attack after noon in order to attract the attention of the Qin army. The water floods the Blue River Valley, not to mention the attack, even the march is extremely difficult. Especially after the heel of the boot, the section that turns to the boot shaft.

This section of the terrain is already low-lying, so it is necessary to erect a trestle a few feet above the ground. As soon as the trestle was gone, the water flooded to the knees, and after the embankment was built, the water rose every day, and when the soldiers waded through the water, the water was already waist-deep. There was no threat from the water, and the most angry thing was that some Qin army scouts stood on the mountainside and threw bamboo baskets into the water. In order to make the Chu army feel afraid, they specially learned the Chu language and shouted on the mountain, "Are the Jing people afraid of snakes?" Afraid of snakes? There is no etiquette in summer, only snakes and insects ......"

The bamboo basket was thrown down the mountain, and before it entered the water, some poisonous snakes flew out of the bamboo basket, or landed at the foot of the mountain, or fell into the blue water. The Chu people are not the local natives of the south like the Yue people, and they are most afraid of snakes and insects. Dozens of bamboo baskets were thrown down, and the more they thought about it, the more frightened they became, not only did they not dare to move forward, but some of them were still jumping in the water, and the whole division began to tremble.

"Hit the other side! Hit the other side! Ruo Ao was alone and jumped angrily, he grabbed the company commander Pan Xuan and said urgently.

"This ......" Pan Xuan's artillery company was still assigned to the retinue, because Lantian was familiar with the road, and his gunners should not disassemble the barrel like Gongchuan Road. Although the water was deep, the six dragon horses had sufficient strength, and the gun carriages rolled the mud and marched with the brigade.

"Strike the other side!" The Qin people on the mountain were still throwing bamboo baskets, and the entire brigade in front of them stopped, and the soldiers rushed to the cliff on the left to avoid snakes and insects. This army can't do it right now.

"Artillery columns." Pan Xuan estimated the distance of the other party, about three hundred steps away, three hundred steps is not far, but the problem is that the Qin people are on the mountainside more than a hundred steps high. Because you have to shoot from the back, it's very difficult to fight.

"Artillery columns!" The gunner's voice was louder than Pan Xuan's, and the soldiers before and after he shouted looked over.

"Putting ——!" After setting Zhu Yuan, the first shot was a test firing, and with a 'boom', the mountain stream was full of echoes of artillery. This time, the followers seemed to have forgotten to shout long live. Everyone is afraid of snakes, if the weapon of the thunder god can drive away those Qin people who throw snakes and insects, then everyone will not be afraid.

In the eyes of the ......, the cannonball crossed the mountainside where the Qin people were located and landed in the blue water behind the mountainside.

"The ruler is four hundred and fifty, to the right zero and three, and the height is reduced by two. One test shot of live ammunition. Pan Xuan adjusted the angle of his shot, because there were several young gunners beside him, and he deliberately shouted loudly to make them clear about his calculations.

"Putting ——!" The artillery commander shouted again, and the second shell fell a hundred meters from the side of the Qin people, and the dense pine branches broke in response. The Qin people, who had suffered a targeted artillery attack for the first time, were stunned when they heard the first cannon shot, and when they saw the shells hitting their sides, they didn't know who shouted, and they immediately disappeared into the forest.

"Oh!!" From the heartfelt cheers, the soldiers and soldiers in the valley shouted loudly. Artillery has long become an omnipotent existence, as long as there is artillery, no one can stop the Chu army.

"Good, great good!" Ruo Ao walked alone and saw that the Qin people were fleeing and the morale of his army was high, so he couldn't close his mouth with joy. What he didn't see was that on the slope of the hill higher, a young Qin general led his army to watch all this.

"Report ——!" Lantian County, which has become the shogunate of the Qin army, ordered the soldiers to report loudly. "The Jing people came along the blue water, our army threw snakes and insects, and the Jing people attacked me with witch weapons."

"Witchcraft?" The generals in the shogunate were shocked, and Zhao Zheng, who was dealing with government affairs in the innermost, also put down his pen.

"Yes, yes." Wei Yu once ordered that any news of a witch weapon should be reported. "Our army is on the mountainside, the Jing people are three hundred steps away, the witch weapon hits me, our army retreats, and the Jing people are happy."
